  • I surprised my husband for his birthday with a sunset cruise. It was serene, extremely relaxing and delightful in every way. We sailed out of the Yacht Club, through the Choctawatchee Bay, under the Destin Bridge, through the Destin Harbor and then back!!! Captain Guido was the perfect host, a combination of light and funny and yet peaceful. We brought wine and cheese and crackers and cookies and, and…… we just kicked back and snuggled.
    Thanks for a great time and terrific memories! Here are some pictures from our cruise. Helen and Gary

  • We booked the sail for our son's 10th birthday. Captain John taught our son all about sailing. We had a wonderful time. The sailboat Minnie is just beautiful and well cared for by her Captain.

  • I definitely recommend taking the sailboat excursion! We booked through TripShock, all of our questions were answered, and the Captain made it easy for us to find him. The kids enjoyed it and they had an opportunity to learn how to navigate the sailboat. Would be a great romantic getaway or something for the whole family to enjoy!
